Inspired by another poster: The legal‑tech vendors are pushing “frictionless onboarding.” The lingo begins to pain us.

WHY DO THEY KEEP GETTING TO "IGNORE" COURT ORDERS? IT'S ALMOST AS IF THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING! AND THEY ARE! GETTING AWAY WITH EVERY FUCKING CRIME!!! CAN'T SOMEONE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS??????????
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 2mo agoWOW. Todd Blanche IGNORES the court order to produce certain Epstein files or explain redactions, and INSTEAD claims it needs more time, and should be able to do it UNDER SEAL. We saw this deflection coming a mile away. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The professional‑services world is buzzing about “micro‑certifications.” A charming way to say people want proof of skill without sitting through another three‑day seminar. But this whole certifications thing....
I was young the first time the news disturbed me and how fortunate for me my great-grandmother was alive. "Oh Allie, I am so sorry. None of this is new. Your parents think they discovered injustice. [she cackled] Hardship and cruelty are constants best combated, not by outrage, but love."
University published a paper shows that attention spans haven’t collapsed — the environment has. My generation in particular seems to be assaulted by constant barrage of sensory input. Go ski. Go play soccer. Go sit somewhere.
For decades, Republicans in Washington have told us that tax cuts would trickle down to workers. Instead, wealth and power have accumulated in the hands of the richest 1% at the expense of the rest of us. Trickle-down economics was never supposed to work. It was a hoax.
"Strategic Transformation" will be the reason you see me with double-skulling ice-picks in my ears.
What devastates, yet somehow makes me giddy with befuddlement: It is all of us--smart, caring, educated, embracing vs. Qanon Shaman (lol) Donald Trump (?!) George Santos (ffs) NASCAR and UFC (sobbing) Theirs is the party of Dan Quayle and W....
The financial regulators’ quarterly update was refreshingly direct: disclosure is not optional. For god's sake.
If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250
Just an appreciation post, Michelle Obama is amazing.
As was often said in describing her, she has the pipes!

Gum up all the works. Make them read every bill they introduce in entirety. Aren’t some of the items put forth for funding thousands of pages? Make them read it. Out loud. Call out points on every little thing. Sue them for everything. Tie up everything. Stop their funding.
Their format: ACCUSES OTHERS OF WHAT THEY ARE PLANNING 🤬🤬🤬
Vatnik Soup@vatniksoup.bsky.social · 2y agoSecond, Patrushev recently claimed that the US and the UK are planning to blow up these cables. As soon as RuNet is fully separated from the global network, Russia is ready to launch these sabotage operations. 2/2
you'd think a political party largely based on I've Got a Pool Guy He's The Best would be better at this
Chris Hayes@chrislhayes.bsky.social · 2mo agoAlso something oddly relatable about a succession of contractors working on the reflecting pool being like "the last guy really screwed it up." The three certainties in life are death, taxes, and the contractor you hired for a project telling you that whoever did it the first time messed it up

Friends, they finally tracked me down. Never bought the tapes I was contractually bound to purchase. Columbia House secured the perimeter around my house, tear gas, SWAT, helicopters. They'll never take me alive. #Capitalism #Greed #Music #Consumerism #Debt
Iran is still refusing IAEA access to the damaged sites. Inspectors say they’ve been waiting for days without movement. Tempted to think negatively about Iran. Then suddenly remembered: this is brought to us by Trump-Israel.
Really need people to stop saying that the Minnesota 15 are going to be fine, that their charges will be dropped like ours. That was four days before trial, was NOT supposed to happen, and only did because of persistent, diligent, and incredible work by our lawyers.
An all-time own goal, just in time for the World Cup.
Kevin Rothrock@kevinrothrock.me · 2mo agoThis video appears to confirm it was a Russian air-defense missile — not a Ukrainian drone — that blew up that Moscow refinery’s storage tank today, creating the "flying saucer" footage.

What pisses me off? We here welcoming anyone and everyone from all over--good. Then some pitiful creature of God shows up (lantern fly or snakehead) and everybody: "Invasive species! Kill it!" Maybe people the worst invasive species, Love is love. Life is life. Fuckers killing life gtfo
